hair - need advice please ladies!

Hi everyone!

ok. Here's my question - opinions needed: I think my hair is one of my better features and am not a big fan of the way my hair looks up. I found a hairstyle that would leave my hair down but away from my face, that I think looks lovely. My dress is sleeveless and has a low back. Almost everyone I know says that hair down is just too informal for a wedding and not 'special' enough and is really pushing (in a nice way) for me to wear my hair up.

What is your advice? Thanks so much!

Re: hair - need advice please ladies!

if you think you look much better with your hair down then go for it. but i kinda agree that putting your hair up just makes it look so much more formal .. and especially if you have a low back on your dress and want to show it off. maybe something half up as a compromise?

I say wear your hair the way you want! I know plenty of girls who have worn their hair down and it looked beautiful! Go get a hair trial done and see what you think then make your decision! Hope this helps!

I am wearing my hair half up & half down like this. I say go for it, it's YOUR day and however you feel most comfortable.
Nowadays, it's whatever you want goes....

Re: hair - need advice please ladies!

I don't think wearing your hair down will look informal. You should wear it however you feel most comfortable.

You should wear your hair which ever way you feel comfortable. You have to feel confident on your wedding day.

Re: hair - need advice please ladies!

I'm going to wear my hair down too. A lot of people have told me the same thing...'wear your up, it's more formal'..but I don't care, I'm wearing it down. I want to be happy and comfortable with the way I look.
